  1. Depends on the tools you have to work with and what you're going for (display stand vs storage). I prefer this method because it reduces manual labor and it can also be replicated easily with a click of a button. Between the several printers I have, I can easily build multiples if need be. But you're right about the 20/20 aluminum rails... not cheap. This was a one off for myself so cost doesnt bother me much... but its the main reason I cant really sell these despite several people asking to buy. I've been looking for alternative solutions for the beams but havent been successful (I prefer not to use wood).
  2. I think about 24 hours total using a 0.4mm nozzle and fine layer height
  3. Check out my reel display stand design. I wanted a multi-row stand that could hold up to 12 reels or so and after some tinkering, its been brought to life! For those of you with 3D printers, you can download it for free here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5876982
  4. Are the gears still smooth and are there any scratches on the spool lip? If all's good then I'm willing to split at 525.
  5. I'm also curious about the gear material... I have a feeling its cast zinc just like the BG, BG mq and saltist. I love that they added the ziaon rotor... but really hoping theres more than just a cast zinc gear in a $300+ reel...
  6. Could you tell me what was done during the last service and is it still smooth? Also, are there any dents/scratches to the spool lip? Thanks.
  7. Guy did ask if I was local (which I'm not) but we would have had to settle for shipping. I just couldnt get my head around the fact he's willing to trade a $800 reel for a $440ish reel. And the "low supply" comment ended the deal for me. Any one of us could get a brand new certate 5000 within a few days easily. My guess is that I'd be given a fake (or a brick) in exchange for the certate. Scammers can get pretty crafty
  8. This guy is selling a brand new saltiga BJ 4000 and states he prefers a trade with a daiwa certate. I instantly messaged him at first but started to realized this is too good to be true. When I asked him why he won’t just quickly sell the saltiga for a lower price and buy a new certate, he says they’re hard to come by and in low supply. Amazon and eBay listings say otherwise. When I checked his FB profile he just joined this year with no actual photos of himself or other info pertaining to his identity. Just throwing this out there if anyone comes across the same listing. Would hate to see people get scammed.
  9. Thanks man, appreciate the info
